In all grades, the dashboard features a panel that houses dual 12.3-inch technology panels and a leather steering wheel with mounted controls.

Ssangyong Torres Engine

All Torres models share the same 1.5L four-cylinder turbo-petrol engine that produces up to 120kW/280Nm. The only AWD available is the Ultimate grade.

Ssangyong Torres Seats

The Torres is available with five seats in a 2/3 configuration.

The rear row has a 60/40 split with a 32.5-degree adjustable recline and fold-down armrest.

The base and mid-spec grades have manually adjustable front seats but the top-grade enjoys eight-way power adjustable front seats.

The ELX has black cloth upholstery, the Adventure has black synthetic leather upholstery and the Ultimate enjoys black leather upholstery.

Ssangyong Torres Boot Space

The boot offers 703L of capacity when all five seats are in use but that can be bumped up to 1526L when the rear seats are folded.

The boot has a level loading space and a temporary spare tyre underneath the floor.

Only the mid- and top-spec grades get a powered tailgate.

Ssangyong Torres Speed

The Torres doesn't have an official 0-100km/h sprint time but you can expect it would achieve it within 10 seconds. It also doesn't have an official top speed but it would be at least 150km/h.

Ssangyong Torres Range

The official combined fuel cycle figure is 7.4L/100km for the ELX and Adventure grades and based on a 50L fuel tank, you should see a theoretical driving range of up to 676km.

The official combined fuel cycle figure is 7.9L/100km for the Ultimate grade and based on a 50L fuel tank, you should see a theoretical driving range of up to 633km.

SsangYong recommends a minimum 95 RON unleaded petrol to be used on all Torres models.
